Possible to set a '*Date/Time*' field via workflow formula when user makes a Direct List Edit? I tried to reference {lastmodified} but that didn't work. Any help would be apprecaited.

Are you talking about while doing inline edits on a saved search or from the record list? If so - this is... complicated, and often better done as script. Mainly because you are likely to want something the user hasn't actually modified to be part of the formula. - which won't be available to your workflow, but in a script - they can actually load the record. Event type is xedit. Sometimes it can be used in workflow, but often I find I hit that limitation I just mentioned

Thank you for the guidance. Okay, I'll just throw a quick WFA script together.

I wouldn't do this as a WFA script. I believe it would be best as a user event script

10-4. Appreciate the guidance.
Possible to get the in-line List value to update immediately upon script execution, so i don't have to refresh the list? I'm running a UE script beforeSubmit.

I am not sure.

Might try running this client side.
